After sitting out the entirety of 2025, Sophia Wilson has stormed back onto the pitch with a vengeance. The Portland Thorns striker racked up 15 goals during the regular season - good enough for third in the entire league. It's the kind of return most players can only dream of.
Wilson hasn't done it alone. Midfielder Pietra Tordin has been equally electric, bagging eight goals and dishing out nine assists. The chemistry between the pair has been the engine driving Portland's attacking threat all season, as reported by CBS Sports.
Sunday's clash at Audi Field sees the Thorns travel to face the Washington Spirit in the NWSL playoffs. On paper, Washington are the favourites - but their defensive frailties have been well documented. Portland will fancy their chances of finding gaps at the back.
For Spirit head coach Adrian Gonzalez, failure is not really an option. The pressure to deliver an NWSL title this season is immense, with whispers already circulating that coaching changes could follow if the Spirit fall short.
